I can't wait to see them on, they will look great.  I would change the indictor bulbs though, try the silvertec ones or go for LEDs like i've done.

Get them fitted and get some pics up fast!!

I like them, you just need to get rid of the orange. Can you post a pic of them with the drls on during the day.

How much and where did you get them?

yer im not feeling the orange either but not sure what part or where to get it from to change it cuz it doesnt look right  :sad1: Giving the car a good clean over the weekend so i will take some proper pics then.

I got them from redlinedmax £209 but i have seen them on a few other websites but i wasnt sure if they were safe as redlinedmax emailed back very qiuck and very good service.  :happy2:

You'll have trouble with LED's as the indicators are on the CANbus.

You'll need to fit or find some with built in resistors  :happy2:
